oh lordy, trouble so hard
oh lordy, trouble so hard,
don't nobody know my troubles but God
don't nobody know my troubles but God

went down the hill, the other day
my soul got happy and stayed all day
went down the hill, the other day
my soul got happy and stayed all day

went in the room, didn't stay long,
looked on the bed and brother was dead
went in the room, didn't stay long,
looked on the bed and brother was dead

Lou Reed - Perfect Day (1972)

 Just a perfect day
drink Sangria in the park
And then later
when it gets dark, we go home

Just a perfect day
feed animals in the zoo
Then later
a movie, too, and then home

Oh, it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spend it with you
Oh, such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on
You just keep me hanging on

Just a perfect day
problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
it's such fun

Just a perfect day
you made me forget myself
I thought I was
someone else, someone good

Oh, it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh, such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on
You just keep me hanging on

You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow

эта песня со мной уже больше 10 лет... и я восхищаюсь ей до сих пор, а леонард коэн - один из самых любимых исполнителей - как сейчас, так и 10 лет назад...
Leonard Cohen - I'm Your Man

If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
I'm your man
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man

Ah, the moon's too bright
The chain's too tight
The beast won't go to sleep
I've been running through these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep
Ah but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees
Or I'd crawl to you baby
And I'd fall at your feet
And I'd howl at your beauty
Like a dog in heat
And I'd claw at your heart
And I'd tear at your sheet
I'd say please, please
I'm your man

And if you've got to sleep
A moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
I'll disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while
Across the sand
I'm your man

я подумал... что ещё я слушаю сейчас с таким же чувством, как и в детстве? ничего... раньше я любил много чего - Элвис, поп-музыка 50-х-60-х, блюзовики самые разные, zz top... сейчас меня это тоже конечно трогает периодически... раз в полгода находит... а коэна с его песнями-поэмами я люблю до сих пор. именно люблю.

Damien Rice - The Animals Were Gone

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong
Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song
I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long


The window's open now and the winter settles in
We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin
I love your depression and I love your double chin
I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering

Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone
We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn
We could make babies and accidental songs

I know I've been a liar and I know I've been a fool
I hope we didn't break yet, but I'm glad we broke the rules
My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through
I cover my eyes, still all I see is you

Elephant
What's the point of this song? Or even singing?
You've already gone, why am I clinging?
Well I could throw it out, and I could live without
And I could do it all for you
I could be strong
Tell me if you want me to lie
'Cause this has got to die
***
you can't paint an elephant quite as good as she...

Damien Rice - Accidental Babies
(excerpt)

Do you come
Together ever with him?
Is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
Do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?

Well I know I make you cry
And I know sometimes you wanna die
But do you really feel alive without me?
If so, be free
If not, leave him for me
Before one of us has accidental babies
For we are in love

совсем свеженький альбом чумбавамбы (Chumbawamba). песенка называется add me. уж не про жж ли она?..:) но текст грустный вообщем-то....:)
Add me. Add me
Would you like to add me as a friend?


Chumbawamba - Add Me
I’m a loner alone with neuroses and hate
Anger is a permanent character trait
My letter bombs are primed and ready to send
Would you like to add me as a friend?
I’m a wound-up whiner with a fetish for guns
I’m almost 50 and I live with my Mum
I hope my nude picture doesn’t offend
Would you like to add me as a friend?

Add me. Add me
Me Mum says she wished she’d never had me
Add me. Add me
Would you like to add me as a friend?

I’m a recovering alcoholic I rarely leave my room
Peeping through the curtains in my dog costume
The voices in my head aah they’ll get me in the end
Would you like to add me as a friend?
I’d really like to mail you the picture that I drew
It’s Kylie’s body but the head is you
I’ve asked you fifty times before I’m asking you again –
Would you like to add me as a friend?

Here’s a picture of me in my Nazi uniform
doing a trick with an egg that I like to perform
at a monster truck rally that my Mum and me attend
Would you like to add me as a friend?

I’ve added Britney and Paris and you and Tom
I’m going to find your address so I can visit you at home
I don’t like people but I like to pretend
Would you like to add me as a friend?

Jolie Holland - Old Fashion Morphine
Gimme that old fashion morphine

Fun Lovin' Criminals - We Have All The Time In The World
We have all the time in the world.
Time enough for life to unfold all the precious things life has in store.
And we got all the love in the world.
And as time goes by you will find we need nothing more.

And every step of the way we'll find us
With the kiss of the world behind us.
And we got all the time in the world for love.
Nothing more, nothing less, only love.

я никогда не писал, как сильно люблю эти две песенки the cure? apart и trust. я просто забыл... я не помню сейчас точно, где и с кем я их узнал впервые, но помню, что это был полутёмный комнатный вечер...
это одни из тех песен, которые я полюбил ещё в детстве и я могу их не слушать по пять лет, а потом, вот так.. случайно попадаются... и всё... я сражён... расстаен... я чувствую их точно так же, как и в 18...:):):):)
тексты безумно красивые.. почитайте... а лучше ещё и слушать:)
The Cure - Apart

he waits for her to understand
but she won't understand at all
she waits all night for him to call
but he won't call anymore
he waits to hear her say
forgive
but she just drops her pearl-black eyes
and prays to hear him say
i love you
but he tells no more lies

he waits for her to sympathize
but she won't sympathize at all
she waits all night to feel his kiss
but always wakes alone
he waits to hear her say
forget
but she just hangs her head in pain
and prays to hear him say
no more
i'll never leave again

how did we get this far apart?
we used to be so close together
how did we get this far apart?
i thought this love would last forever

download, 9Mb
The Cure - Trust

there is no-one left in the world
that i can hold onto
there is really no-one left at all
there is only you
and if you leave me now
you leave all that we were
undone
there is really no-one left
you are the only one

and still the hardest part for you
to put your trust in me
i love you more than i can say
why won't you just believe?

I love these easy evenings
that you spend alone
and all that noisy sounds around
they seem so far and distant
they make no difference for you, they flow so slow...
like there's fog...
which is so thick and dense, that makes you barely move...

there's no more souls are left
but yours
in the calmness of this room
and the in the infinity of this world

      Bang Gang - There Was A Whisper
I feel so alone
I feel so cold
I want to fly
Take off to the sky
Its so cold
Its so cold
Its so cold

There was a chill
There was a sound
There was a whisper
That I found
It went along
Searching
It will return while I stay

в который раз восхищаюсь проектом bang gang. я очень плотно слушал их около года назад, да и в другое время... подзабыв на некоторое время, снова вернулся к нему после того, как услышал их трек Inside (mp3, 192kbps, 7.8Mb) в фильме кэшбэк. этот был как флэшбэк:)
у меня есть только их диск Something Wrong и больше ничего за всё это время не встречалось ни на сайтах откуда я качаю музыку, ни у знакомых. хочется найти You и синглы.
сейчас посмотрел, на сайте есть информация о других проектах Bardi Johannsson'a:

может кто встречал чего?:)

Hooverphonic - Vinegar & Salt
I... like the things that you hate
And you... hate the things that I like
And it hurts
Honesty's your church
But sometimes
It's better to lie
I... am the vinegar and salt
And you... are the oil that dissolves
My frustration
Honesty's limitation
But sometimes
Its better to lie
I am the vinegar and salt
And you are the oil that dissolves my frustrations
Limitations
But sometimes...
I dont dare to ask why

Depeche Mode - Nothing's Impossible
Just give me a reason, some kind of sign
I'll need a miracle to help me this time
I heard what you said, and I feel the same
I know in my heart that I'll have to change

Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothing's impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

How did we get to be this far apart?
How did we get to be this far apart?
I want to be with you, something to share
I want to be here, I am not there

Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothing's impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible
Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothing's impossible
If you believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

I still believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

Depeche Mode - Free love
If you've been hiding from love
If you've been hiding from love
I can understand where you're coming from
I can understand where you're coming from

If you've suffered enough
If you've suffered enough
I can understand what you're thinking of
I can see the pain that you're frightened of

And I'm only here
To bring you free love
Let's make it clear
That this is free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love

I've been running like you
I've been running like you
Now you understand why I'm running scared
Now you understand why I'm running scared

I've been searching for truth
I've been searching for truth
And I haven't been getting anywhere
No I haven't been getting anywhere

And I'm only here
To bring you free love
Let's make it clear
That this is free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love

Hey girl
You've got to take this moment
Then let it slip away
Let go of complicated feelings
Then there's no price to pay

We've been running from love
We've been running from love
And we don't know what we're doing here
No we don't know what we're doing here

We're only here
Sharing our free love
Let's make it clear
That this is free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love

Ah but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees

The Cure - Friday I'm In love
I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love

Saturday, wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday, never hesitate...

I don't care if Mondays black
Tuesday, Wednesday - heart attack
Thursday, never looking back
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday, you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday - watch the walls instead
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday, never hesitate...

Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday, I'm in love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love

royksopp - what else is there
It was me on that road
But you couldn't see me
Too many lights out, but nowhere near here

It was me on that road
Still you couldn't see me
And then flashlights and explosions

Roads end getting nearer
We cover distance but not together

I am the storm I am the wonder
And the flashlights nightmares
And sudden explosions

I don't know what more to ask for
I was given just one wish

It's about you and the sun
A morning run
The story of my maker
What I have and what I ache for

I've got a golden ear
I cut and I spear
And what else is there

Roads and getting nearer
We cover distance still not together

If I am the storm if I am the wonder
Will I have a flashlights nightmares
And sudden explosions

There's no room where I can go and
You've got secrets too

I don't know what more to ask for
I was given just one wish
